Inspired partially by something in a post isis2015 made, and partially a rehash of a conversation Dr. Boyfriend and I had this weekend during my visit.

I feel like the two of them would just be grinning like it's Christmas the whole time they fought, and that it would be no-holds-barred with the intention of fighting to the death just because they could, but that somewhere between the teeth Jackson knocks out of Roosevelt's jaw, and the dislocated shoulder/broken arm combo Roosevelt gives Jackson, they would each realize that the other was a stand-up gentleman and would adjourn to the study for brandy and cigars and manly camaraderie.

No hospitals. Hospitals are for pussies.

This is funny, I saw on a blog something similar this morning. Teddy Roosevelt once got shot while giving a speech and finished the speech before seeking medical care. Andrew Jackson was apparently so foul mouthed his pet parrot got thrown out of his (Jackson's) funeral for saying inappropriate things.

Jackson would beat the tar out of Teddy Roosevelt until Teddy summoned a moose (because of course they were fighting in the wilderness) and then uses the moose to kick Jackson in the head.

Both of them would then fall over and bond over ridiculous 'war stories' and until someone dragged them both to the hospital.

Jackson would win by being the first one up from the hospital bed.
